The new Chigee AIO 5 Play for BMW now blows the Carpuride away as it also slots into the SatNav mount, and has wheel control. Much better fit and also doesn’t need an app. I’ve been testing it for a few weeks - far superior.
@@Rammit_Inha_AssolI guess not many reviewers have Android phones any more. I haven’t had an Android for 15 years so I can’t do a review if I don’t have one.
I have a Carpuride ready to go for my new GSA. I have a feeling that these two companies will advance their products quickly in terms of software and hardware, mounting and integration.
Great review Dave. Lots of food for thought. I’ve purchased the carpuride, but considering returning it and buying the chigee. I understand that chigee have the plug and play bmw cradle solution available now, with interoperability with the whizz wheel( no need for canbus plugins). Keep up the great work 👍🙌
Hello Dave. Thanks for the video. I have been seeing more and more ads for Carpuride than Chigee and I’m tempted to buy one but I hate installation of any electrical equipment that’s not OEM. Especially if I have to do it myself. I want the forward and rear facing cameras to record every time I ride and a few other bits. BMW will get to this in the 2nd iteration of the R1300 GS/A at that point I may consider buying one of those bikes. Until then I will make do with my current set up. What would be great is if BMW gave you the option to plug and play 3rd party options but that might be asking for too much. Anyway thanks again for the video and keep up the good work. PS I like the smallness of your channel but I get the feeling that’s about to change in the next couple of months
Many thanks Richard. Yes I think the camera system and blind spot/sentry modes actually sell this system hands down. With ref to your final comment I often wonder if the channel will ever get picked up by the famous ‘algorithm’. Who knows, but at the moment I’m still happy plugging away. Cheers. 👌
Great review Dave. Based on cost its Carpuride for me as i already have plenty of info on the TFT (last of the 1200's). I used a ram mount as then I can swap between the GS and RT, or quick remove when parked up, and leaving the NAV6 in situ (not that I can see it anymore😜). Cheers Arthur.
Morning Dave , now I’m not technically minded at all at all but you explained both of them systems perfectly and unbiased and explained there features simply and totally understandable to even the likes of me. 👍🙋🏻♂️👏🫡🕺
The way technology is progressing Chigee will be giving out the lottery numbers soon😂 Nice review Dave, the Chigee gets my vote but a detachable screen is definitely a must. Be well and safe riding, Trev.
A very informative video. Certainly you get what you pay for like with most things. I would save up my pennies and go for the chigee but will probably wait for the straight BMW cradle mounted version in the hope that it is detachable however that would probably mean that you lose the sentry option. Anyway many thanks for doing the review, without knowing what's out there and having someone kind enough to give up their personal time to review them we would have to rely on what the manufacturers tell us and that way lies madness😂
Good review Dave. I agree that the hot swap option for the Chigee will be a game changer. I'm still a. bit old school and don't do music or phone calls while riding. A good GPS system is all I need. Perhaps that can be one of your next reviews? Nav 6 is rubbish so looking at the Garmin Zumo XT.....
Hi Dave. Great comparison vlog. I have the 5 inch Carpuride with an add on 3d printed item that allows on and off connection to the BMW interface. I am awaiting delivery on the Chiggee Play 5 inch. I agree about the auto brightness, living in Switzerland (land of many long tunnels) is an issue. The BMW Navigator was sold some time ago as it is pants..Great job Dave.
Hi Dave, great review. I have the carpuride fitted to my bike, and I love it. The only thing that put me of the chigee was the fitting but if there going to make a bracket to fit the GS bracket I would seriously consider buying one but I'm not going through all that hassle taking half the bike apart.😮 Ride safe 👍
Thanks Dave, great comparison. I was thinking of replacing the Zumo XT with one of these. I was leaning towards the Carpuride because of the price, but now I'm thinking Chigee. Especially with your wheelie good offer of 20% off 😉
If you can stretch to the price of the CHIGEE I think with more features to be rolled out in future firmware upgrades that this system will be the market leader amongst dash cams in the near future. 👌
@@WheelieGoodTV The chiggee system would work for me , but only if they make it detachable. It would be a case of five fingers discount if left on the bike.
A great comparison, I have the Chigee system on my Ninja and even though mine is a 2024 bike it adds technology that I find really useful, CarPlay, cameras, blind spot monitoring, tyre pressures. Chigee have a non camera version as well as a clip straight in to a BMW version coming soon, looks like you will have to review them soon. 😀
@@davidz8 cheers David, yes I’d already committed to reviewing this older version before they released their new clip in model. Would have saved me a few hrs of wiring!🤣🤯
clearly both companies have sent out freebies-for-reviews to hundreds of YTer's. It's a different story when you have to hand over your own hard-earned dollars (or are retired like myself). I just installed a Chinese no-name (probably made in the same factory as these systems) for 101 Euro's delivered....... 5 inch, front/rear camera, TPMS, Apple and Android etc etc ...... took around an hour to install and quality and performance so far is ideal. At that price certainly worth a gamble.
Good to see a direct comparison. With regards to Mounting solutions I'm working on an adaptor so that I can mount various systems on GS and port the device to an other bike. The GS is quite cramped above the instruments. TTFN!
Obviously, the time/effort to connect the Chiggee has been greatly improved (at least for those of us with Sat Nav Prep on our BMWs) with the company's release of the AIO-5 Play For BMW. It just snaps into the Nav cradle on the bike, and also allows the Chigee to be controlled by the bike's "wonder wheel". I've pre-ordered that unit, and it is due to begin shipping at the end of July, 2024.
While having a BMW R1250RS with the bells and whistles, I enjoy my RE's for their simplicity. Even my 310 GS for it's road presence while still a small displacement moto is fulfilling to me. Tech sometimes ruins the ride. My age is starting to show as "my" needs are simply to get to the next day. LOL. 👍👍
Fabulous review. Super clear 🙂 Q) UK law (for non hand held devices): "You must stay in full control of your vehicle at all times. The police can stop you if they think you’re not in control because you’re distracted and you can be prosecuted." So riders 'could' be prosectued for using fixed mount touch screens IF the police deem it to be unsafe. On a motorbike where it's easy to be seen... this rings a few alarm bells. Just a thought.
Great comparison. I would just add one thing about the Carpuride 7'': The big screen is great but it often covers the motocycle instrument pannel. This is specially true on the BMWs as you know, no matter if it is the analog or digital one. It's just one more reason to go for the 5'' version
@@WheelieGoodTV @TheMissendenFlyer It is mentioned indeed after all! Anyway, my comment might still help those who might have missed that part as well :p
It’s all great kit Dave….wonder if you got as much stick on your channel as I did on mine for reviewing Chinese products? I reviewed the Carpuride and The Aoocci systems and was all but labelled as an agent of the PRC by some 😂
Yeah it’s superb and I absolutely love mine. I never got as much stick for this as I did with the TEMU haul vid I did. Even though I wasn’t sponsored and I genuinely loved the stuff I got and still use, the amount of abuse was unreal. I won’t be doing another TEMU vid, that’s for sure!👌 🤣
Thanks for the superb video!!! One question, does the BMW Connected App run on these systems? As far as I can see from the website of Chigee, the Apple Car Play system now attached by the default BMW system, so you can attach or disattach in seconds. Wasn't available when you made your video?
@@Paulschen100 good question Paul but unfortunately wasn’t available on the version I was sent. Maybe it’s on the new plug and play model. I’m sure all these future updates are only firmware so if it isn’t available yet, it will be soon. 👌

The video was excellent. However, I have three concerns about these devices. Firstly, since I don’t own a BMW, I’d need to wire it in permanently. Secondly, I’d be worried about theft. I’ve seen the Carpuride in action, and while it is removable, it’s not as straightforward as my old Garmin Zumo, requiring undoing a wingnut/ball joint thing and disconnecting a cable. Thirdly, since it's reliant on a phone connection for the GPS- you then need to worry about both phone battery. Additionally, the 7-inch size would likely be too large for my bike. If it's using Google Maps (or another provider) you would need to download the maps to your phone, otherwise if you lose signal you would lose your maps.
Hi John, Yes indeed you have outlined the three negatives about these systems and that’s where any of these companies who make these systems need to be looking next. The big one for me is to make it easily removable from any bike on a cradle system. Whilst this is all fairly new tech and I understand these companies have put all their R&D into the actual device I think next they need to put more research into the usability exactly as you’ve outlined. Hopefully the manufacturers will read this….👌🙏
I have the 802 on my 21 r1250gs. Unfortunately, the brightness at night makes it almost unusable because even at the minimum setting, it is still way too bright! I mentioned it in every single place I can just to see if the carpuride guys wake up because, like you said, it is most likely a simple software update. There is also the problem that you have to go tru menus while riding just to access the brightness display, no good, while riding the motorcycle! The nav 6 may be awful, but have it dialed perfectly with the auto brightness!. I do find the screen somewhat unresponsive, too, where sometimes I have to select something 3 times to get it to work. No doubt geared in the right direction, but no there yet! You can move the whole craddle a little bit up and the carpuride doesn't obstruc the bmw display!
**WARNING** Chigee does NOT support voice control when using Android Auto and a bluetooth headset!! Big disadvantage that you should know before bying the Chigee! Edit: Chigee says the are working on it.
